Chopped Summer Vegetables With Lemon/Tahina Dressing
- 1-2 cloves of garlic, crushed
- zest and juice of 1 lemon
- 1 tablespoon sumac
- about a 1/4 cup tahina
- 1/3 cup of your favorite olive oil
- a handful of chopped parsley
- 2 medium heirloom tomatoes
- 1/2 a small red onion
- about a 1/4 of a cucumber
- 1/2 of a green bell pepper
- Sprinkle a little salt over garlic and mash with a fork. Place in bowl with lemon, sumac, and tahina. Use your fork to blend ingredients and then drizzle in the oil. Add parsley.
- Roughly chop tomatoes (reserving juices) and cucumber and add to bowl. Halve the half-onion crosswise, then finely slice length-wise. With green pepper skin-side down, slice length-wise then chop to about 1-inch lengths. (Of course you don't have to follow this exactly, but I find these proportions to be the most pleasing.) Toss everything together and enjoy. Optional: Add slivered radish and/or toasted pita.
